Is this the game thread?

If they show Blooze man in the crowd still sitting there with that same lifeless expression I'm going to lose my sh*t

 

[joelsyt]

So I thought I’d park at Gardiner, with Belgrave/lilydale stuffed, big mistake, there was no parking at Gardiner. ended up parking in a street halfway between Gardiner and Tooronga.

I suppose it’s time I came out of off season hibernation. Hopefully I won’t be eco after tonight

 

[KJpie]

Happy 2023 Tigers
Best of luck tonight, a solid win over the Bloos will be a great way to start the year.

HOW BLOODY GOOD IS FOOTY SEASON?!?!

On the train to the G and it feels like footy is back - can’t wait!

Carltoon supporters down the platform don’t rate Richmond at all, man I hope Richmond comes out and shows carltoon supporters just how wrong they are.

 

[peternorth]

McDonagh works hard to get back and stop a likely Carlton goal.

There is plenty of speed in the VFL squad

where is this at? can one view this match?

 

[_RT_]

Hugo - flashed in and out of the game. Line breaking speed came to the fore on occasions
Dow - worked well in tight winning some good clearances. Disposal by foot let him down occasionally
Ryan - played FF/CHF and presents well. If he can't mark the opposition don't. Kicked 2 in the first half. No ruck work at all.
Bradke - worked hard around the ground and got rewarded with a goal, seemed to be playing outside F50
Cumberland - quiet first quarter but had a direct in 2 goals, 1 kicked and 1 intercept that resulted in a goal. Defensive work needs work
Sonsie - started of head to head with P.Dow and was breaking even in the first, bit quieter in the second.
Banks - another one who had moments where he impacted. Seems to be used as the outlet when rebounding from D50. Line breaking speed will be a weapon
Clarke - started at CHF in the Lambert role. Plays the role pretty well pushing up into the midfield to link up and then work back to be an option.
Young - calling it early but he is the natural Grimes replacement. Plays in a very similar manner with his focus on restricting his man, but also knows how to zone off and intercept mark to stop opposition entries.
Nyoun - played KPD and stints in the ruck. Athletically very good but lack on body strength showed out against Pittonet.
Green - limited impact on the game possession wise but was working hard around the packs and probably had some touches that went unnoticed.

McDonagh - looked really good across HB in partnership with Banks. Some Essendon traits need to be worked on, but very good addition.
El Nour - could be a smokey for the MSD if we needed a KPP. Reads the play well and takes good strong grabs
L.Johnson - a live wire up forward who not only does the attacking stuff well but defensively very accountable.

 

[Grrr]

If jack has another stinker we bring in ryan

Another stinker? What are the lotto numbers this week?

 

[smasha]

I remember the incredible noise of the old cheer squad,the biggest and best in the land.
It went from the back row of the upper old southern stand to the front fence.
The Richmond chant sent tremors through the ground.
Bring it back!

I was at Punt Road early so took in the first half.

 

[mauricerioli]

What happened to Cumberland since last season? He was a regular late last year.

Has he just been squeezed out because of Taranto and Hopper moving into the midfield and Dusty will be more forward?

He’s the only one I’m disappointed in not being in the senior side tonight.

Blues VFL kicked 7.5 in the third to our 2.3. Were up by 3 pts at end of quarter.

 

[tigers12]

which team will receive the first free kick and 50 ?

 

[Rayzorwire]

Hugo with a great rundown tackle is rewarded and sets up Faimolo who misses on the siren.

7.5.47
1.6.12

That's it for me at the VFL.

Will give some more feed back on players shortly
